Makita acquires a gardening tool manufacturer.
 |
In efforts to expand our business to pave the way for future growth, Makita acquired Fuji Robin Industries Ltd. and also made the company a wholly owned subsidiary that was given the name Makita Numazu Corporation to strengthen our footfield in the area of gardening tools, including engine-powered tools. Makita believes that boosting the product development capacities of the company (which posseses its own engine technology in areas such as the mini 4-cycle engine that complies with US gas emissions regulationｓ which are the world's strictest), and effectively utilizing our global sales and after-sales service network with contribute to increasing corporate value over the long term. |
